Science Talent Search :)

Posted by spike1 on Oct. 15, 2013, 9:10 p.m.

Hello everyone! I entered into the science talent search a few months back with 3 entries. Two of them were games, while the other was a short film. Amazingly all of them got a reward, and two were major bursaries! :D : D :D :D :D. I'm really surprised/happy about this, so figured I should share it :D :D.

Here are some pics of the reward:

Anyway, I'll be attending a reward ceremony sometime in November, so really exited about that as well :D.

Yay!! :D :D :D

Edit: Just realized I sound like a complete moron in this post, sorry about that lol :P

Shit dude, I wish I got over a hundred bucks for the weird crap I made in school. All I got was like $6 off sales of Filthtime 12000.

Congrats, man! Although I'm a little lost as to what exactly the nature of the contest was - was it about scientific theory or just a creative way to present known observations?

Hey man congratulations!

I entered my games into some kind of science fair once when I was younger… All I got was a short meeting with a guy in a suit who said he was with Nintendo, though I'm thinking he may actually have been a pedophile.

Ahhh this reminds me last year when I won a surprise art show off a piece I was basically forced to enter, lol. Congrats on your wins, man, pretty damn awesome that all of them won something haha.

Don't forget to go to the ceremony like I did :/

Thanks everyone! Still not sure what to use the money on, probably better software or something lol :D. In all honesty I probably won't spend it anytime soon, I'm fairly lucky with everything I have :).

@Eva_unit-01

Its funny, a few days ago I thought I had lol :D. It was late at night when I remembered the ceremony was in November, and I was like it goes November, October, December lol :P. I called mum and was all upset then I realized my brain had just failed miserably lol :D.

@PanzerCretin

Thanks :). The competition has a few different categories for experimental research and presenting known stuff. I decided that instead of spending time on research(Although I still had too do TONS!!! :P), I would focus on interesting ways to teach through games(Which I did my own research on, might write a post on it sometime) instead of making a powerpoint like most of the presentations. So yeah, in my case a combination of both :D.
